Just really lacklustre all round
I can't think of a single aspect of it that isn't mediocre

It wasn't even that big. Bethesda just hates writing actual quests and settle for that fucking piece of shit radiant quest system that made Skyrim abysmal.
>>
>>341371750
True i couldnt even play the minutemen quests
>>
>>341370852
I honestly think the devs at Bethesda stopped care about the game halfway through development
There are so many things in game that feel rushed unfinished even
It seem like they just stopped giving a shit
>>
>>341371750
Literally what is the point in radiant quests
>>
>>341371997
Especially the institute it leaves you with a cliffhanger youre the new leader, but you cant do anything. They say you have fathers quaters but they dont give it to you, only 5 quests for them. And they dont let you change the way the institute operates at all.

>weapon customization was a good idea except there are only like 7 core weapons in the game
>the art styles of weapons are also weird
>every choice essentially leads to the same outcome
>can't really make a build or challenge playthrough because you'll just end up with every trait regardless
>the major endings are literally the same thing with different people
>no INT choices to completing quests, no CHR choices to completing quests, no buying your way out of anything, no multiple paths at all

Aside from all those core experiences from a fallout game that I'd expect by now, it was still a great game, just not a good fallout game.
>>
>>341370852
i enjoyed survival mode i think it makes the game decent.
>>
Pros:
>Graphics are acceptable
>Gunplay is fun

Cons:
>Linear conversations with illusion of choice
>main story is really fucking short and a reverse of fallout 3
>a ton of little plot holes and inconsistencies that add up to make a ball of fuck
>>
>>341372456
Don't forget:
>You can't even fully mod weapons without Game Mods or Console
>Can't have an Electric Flamethrower or an Nuke Launcher that fires Gorillas (Or organic matter in general)
>No matter what you do, you end up a walking god
>>
>Quests, with few exceptions, are poorly written and uninteresting raider hunts
>Characters were terribly written
>Gunplay was BETTER than previous games, but definitely not great, even though all the quests essentially hinged on the shooting
>Conversations were fucking terrible, the entire dialogue system from previous games was shit on
>World was boring as fuck and lacked any interesting areas, this was particularly noticeable whenever backtracking
>Glowing sea was cool in concept but not used effectively. 80% of it was unused land.
>Gamebryo
>Radiant quests used ad nauseam

It just wasn't as good as it's predecessors, and it barely qualifies as an RPG.
>>
Its just so boring the mods made me get back into it but it still is very hard to play for fun.

It's literally just busy work. At least Oblivion had the decency to hide it's fetch quests behind interesting writing and told a story while it was at it. And that's one of the main issues I have with rq. They just make the world feel more lifeless than it should. There's no story with these quests. You just go here, get an item or kill some fucker, then get your gold and fuck off. I'll concede that Skyrim still had interesting quests throughout it's world, but Fallout 4 is 90% radiant quest and 75% of the population attacks you on sight

If I liked FO3, will I like 4?

Please don't bully

The settlement garbage.

It also looked like a previous-gen game. The atmosphere was lacking. Leveling system was way too dumbed down. Not enough loot. Main quest was boring.

This actually hurts to talk about, fallout 3 is one of my favourite games, I found it extremely engaging. I haven't even finished fallout 4 and I don't think I will out of spite. Fuck you Todd.
>>
Who the fuck is gonna relate to the main character at all, the people playing this game most likely aren't married nor do they have kids. I could not give a hot fuck about this child I know nothing about.

What was the god damn POINT of this shit

Yes, they're very similar.

Though I'd recommend sitting down and giving Fallout: New Vegas a try in the meantime, it's inexpensive, so why not?

It didn't feel like an rpg... The gunplay was fun but there was very little choice in guns, the graphics were good too but that was it. I replayed NV over and over and over but I only did this one 4 times just to get all the endings, by the third time I just rushed through the story to get to the end I was so bored
>>
>>341373665
Already played it to death. That's why I'm considering FO4. I'll wait for the complete edition though

>Skyrim had interesting quests

End yourelf faggot.

Go to X Dragur dungeon to retrieve/kill something/someone. How is this any different from Failout 4?
>>
>>341375286
The enviroment was at least interesting, with better enemies. I actually enjoyed doing those quests.

>>341374252
>% chance speech checks
That's how table top RPGs work. Not defending FO4 though.

I know it still had shitty radiant quests and I addressed that. I was just saying a few of the quests were interesting that were scattered through the world
